“The food was very good. Fast. Hot. Fresh. Although there were some concerns regarding gluten, they were able to provide a vegetable dish with white sauce minus the wheat. It was very good and so was the rice. Water chestnuts, celery, mushrooms, onions, carrots. Very vegan and very good.“
“In a few strip malls, you can find some gems. The decor may be minimal, but the food and service is what counts. I ordered Original Thai Tea served as a canned drink, A Small Cup of Egg Drop Soup with loads of ingredients besides the Egg Drop, 2 Egg Rolls, and a Plethora of Pad Thai Chicken which can serve four people. Each dish was served piping hot, delectably delicious with a wealth of favors. This is a local family business you should put on your to try list.“
“If you're in the mood for 'Chinese ' this is one of the best around. Alway super friendly staff and fast and fresh service!!! The Crab ragoons are addicting! And if you want the real Mc Coy of hot mustard, ask for the homemade stuff. It'll clear your sinuses right up!!! We have never ordered a meal we didn't love!!! Not only that , the prices are unbeatable!!!“
“This place is the best. We are from Minneapolis and when we travel we ALWAYS stop here.The flavors are super fresh. There is no strange after taste or muddy flavors. I recommend this place to everyone.I try a new item each time. I have never been disappointed.Good sized portions. Many items can be shared.Regarding spices: mild is medium, medium or hot, hot is blazing. Sometimes we discuss it more so we get the levels set.The staff are very accommodating.This is located in a newer multi-tenant building. It is super clean and nicely decorated. They have a sizeable bar room with a couple of large screen TVs (in case you want to ignore your dinner companions).Vegetarian options: This place defines most items as vegetarian or vegan (no special notes) and you add meat or tofu as you wish. I get the fried tofu. It is soft and delicious. I can't say if all sauces are vegan, you need to ask that.I lived as a vegan for 18 months. This place was never an issue for me.Dietary restrictions: See vegetarian optionsParking: Parking surrounds the building. We have never had an issue for dinner. Except the year kids crashed the place for prom.“
“Love the look of the new place! There is so much more room now and it looks very trendy. The drinks were great, the dsm love and blood orange margarita. Pork dumplings were also really good! Glad we took the server's recommendations- thanks Kylee!“
“Having lived in a lot of big cities including Los Angeles and Dallas I've had a lot of Dim Sum, and I gotta say it's pretty rare to find one this good that makes their food by hand. Everything we've tried here is delicious, and the price is so reasonable for the amount of food that my husband and I came here for our fifth anniversary.The fried dumplings are filled with hand chopped meat and so flavorful. The shrimp dumplings with chive are delicious. I'm pretty sure my husband could eat 100 char siu baozi and never get sick of them. Everything they make has a lot of care put into it, and as someone whose has made a lot of these dishes growing up myself I can tell you they require skill and knowledge to get right. This is why a lot of places just use frozen premade foods reheated in the steamers.The restaurant itself doesn't look the nicest, but look past that and give it a try when they're serving dim sum and you won't regret it.“
“This place is awesome! Their food is spectacular, piping hot fresh and delicious as soon as it comes tonyour table! Pricing is average for the type of restaurant that it is. The service is great as well. Kindof a mom and pop place of Asian cuisine. Best hot and sour soup of any Chinese restaurant that I've been to. Usually doesn't take more than 10 minutes for my order and timing is important for me because I work for fedex and need to hurry up and eat and get back to delivering packages. I have gut issues and most chinese food has me running to the bathroom in about an hour after consuming it, but I've never had that problem here. I will keep coming back whenever I'm in the area! The only downside I can think of is the parking lot is tiny.“
“We love finding a good local Chinese restaurant. Panda Express and P.F. Chang's have are fine, but nothing beats the authentic taste and nostalgia of local Chinese restaurants. We have been going to this place for several years and they always satisfy us. The interior is cozy and small, and the business is owner-operated. They have a separate traditional menu that is worth trying, but also worth gate keeping. It features Korean-Chinese fusion dishes that are delicious and unique. Everything is fresh and cooked to order. Our orders are usually so hot from the wok that we have to wait a few minutes before digging in. The owners and staff are very friendly, and the service is extremely fast. The number of local Chinese restaurants in the city has dwindled over the past decade, so finding a little gem like this is a treat for us whenever we crave some freshly cooked Chinese food.“

“Our server Nisha was absolutely incredible. She was always busy but made sure to provide lots of refills and checked in on us at all the right times without it being too much. We had a wonderful time and our server certainly was a big part as will as the cooks!“
“I've only Doordashed, but food is good. The other person talking about the food making a mess was wrong. Either they've fixed the issue, or it was a dasher issue. My food came in a large thick paper bag with cardboard bottom & food in separate closed containers. Food like Orange Chicken comes with rice, so you don't need to order a side of rice“
“Friends visiting offered to go grab lunch and asked what I wanted. The wife called in our order and the husband drove to get it. The 3 of us agreed it was fast and delicious but not too heavy that we felt stuffed. We will definitely return here. YUM!“
“This place has the best “Pot Stickers” in Des Moines! So friendly and hardworking! They offer so many different meats and veggie dumpling combinations! My favorite are the pork with Napa cabbage, but my mother prefers the chicken and Napa cabbage! Make sure you get them with the crunchy chili oil! You’ll find them at the Valley Junction Farmer’s Market on Thursday evenings, the Downtown Farmer’s Market in Des Moines on Saturday mornings, as well as Kitchen Spaces in the Drake Neighborhood on Sunday nights!“
“I picked up carryout from Shang Yuen yesterday and it was great. I called ahead and my food was ready in less than 10 minutes. (I would have tried the website ordering but it requires a login to order which is reasonable, I just didn't have time.) When I got there the counter service was excellent and the lady who helped me was happy to help me.I got Hot Braised Chicken (5 stars spicy) and it was perfect. The meat quality was good and not stringy. My food was still (temperature) hot when I sat down to eat. It had a ton of the entree and even came with 2 crab rangoons. I also got an order of crab rangoons and they were great too. I shared the crab rangoons with coworkers and they enjoyed them as well.I look forward to going back!“
“We had a large group that came in fairly staggered. They very very accommodating and friendly. We had several requests for substitutions and most we accommodated. Good food and good portions. Will definitely go back again when I'm in the area!“
“Absolutely delicious! Loved everything we got. Really like the chow fun. Very few places have that. I also liked that they have a bar area where they were playing a game I wanted to watch. Wasn't expecting that. Very quiet atmosphere. We will definitely be going back.“
“This is a hole in the wall Chinese restaurant. No bells and whistles just good food. I see all these 1 star reviews and i definitely don’t agree with any of them.Stop out and support a small local business. Don’t expect fine dining just come for what it is…….DELICIOUS!Vegetarian options: Veggies and rice, looks like any dish can be vegetarian option and they have some good spring rolls“
“The food is always great and they have a lot of delicious gluten free options! I brought some friends with last night and they loved the food and said they'd definitely be going back for more! Prices are reasonable too!Dietary restrictions: A lot of gluten free options!“
